Even before he proposed, we already knew that we are indeed getting married and that we will be getting married on Dec 8, 2009. Just like any girl, I would have wanted a proposal and an engagement ring. But I said to myself, what matters is that we have made the decision to get married. And so I had no idea that he was going to propose when we went on a trip to Pagudpud.
On that particular day, he told me he wants to go swimming in the beach in the afternoon. When we were going to the beach I noticed he brought his bag, which was not small by the way. When I asked him about it, he said he just wanted to secure our things. Okay. While swimming, I noticed he kept glancing at the bag, which was lying at the shore. When we got tired of swimming I told him I wanted to go back to the place we're staying because I wanted to take a shower and clean up. I felt uncomfortable with the sand and the salty water. He told me, we can just go sit somewhere and watch the sunset. Awww. How sweet. So I said okay.
And so we sat on top of a huge rock, watching the waves and chatting. After some time, I told him I wanted to shower cause I was getting really uncomfortable. He told me to wait for a short while. After a few minutes, his tone got serious:
Joy: Natatandaan mo nung first time ka sumama sa dgroup? Sabi ko nun kay Lord, kung pwede akin ka na lang (taking out something from his bag)
Faye: Uhuh
Joy: Natatandaan mo yun plans natin for Dec 8, 2009?
Faye: Uhuh (getting nervous)
Joy: (getting my hands and putting the ring on my finger) Tuloy natin yun ha?
That was it. Simple but really heartfelt. My heart was beating so fast and I was crying.
Later on, we decided to take some pictures. Pardon the quality of the shot and the way we looked (I didn't know he was going to propose that time and so I didn't make any effort on improving my looks ;p)
The beautiful horizon when Joy proposed to me
We took our pics. I was trying to show off my ring ;p
